I using the Wanderer Crest that gives you the classic fast attack speed and Pogo jump cheating.I demolished every boss in my way so far using it.Its only tradeoff is lower silk generation but enemies die fast anyway now so i heal much less overall.
>>720326260>Its only tradeoff is lower silk generationwait what really?
>>720326260That's cool, I'm using the default crest. I only found Beast and I don't like it. Haven't had any problems so far, beat Last Judge and am on Act 2 now.
>>720326260Wanderer is for pussies that can't adapt to new mechanics. You might as well play the first game again.
Wanderer also has some weird crit chance.
>>720326260Is it good for the flying retard in lava stage?
Me too. It works best for DOs random high crits and shreds bosses. Now I just need to find the longnail charm.
>>720326657I think it's when the silk meter is full
>>720326260Easily the weakest crest in the game only used by scrubs that can't learn how to platform.
I got the regular crest upgraded and I like it best. Gives you a damage increase when you fill the meter as long as you don’t get hit. Use it with poison stuff.
>>720326738>weakest crest>out dps literally everything
>>720326792architect crest has the highest dps though
>>720326643the new mechanics are dogshit45 degree pogo is trash and unusable
I use it all the time so far, but I'm not sure if the upgraded base crest has better DPS in focus mode.I just got architect, I like the moveset but the special and slots config are meh
>>720326681only with longclawthe range is so bad you sometimes don't hit when he's flying right above youhis summons die to one silkspear if that's the problem
Wouldn't the pogo jump make some of the platforming harder? Some of those areas are so tightly designed for the diagonal
I THINK THE REAPER SUCKS
ERYAAA
>>720327056>Some of those areas are so tightly designed for the diagonal???????like what?
>>720327056You can make up for it with mid-air dashes
There's a Flea Mark pretty much right underneath the entrance to Putrified Ducts on the map, but I can't find it.
I like the beast crest because binding and going apeshit is a lot more fun than anything else
>>720327056Just dash in the air, like you would with the Knight.Or Clawline.Or float across.
>>720326854Not if you're poor like me.
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??
>>720327268>zoomer nigger has never played half life
>>720327221This one is a big fucker.There is actually a secret exit INSIDE the building, hidden by a broken wall or something covering it. It will lead you atop the building
>>720326260Anything the Twelfth Architect sells any good?
>>720327268the cool ropeit takes you to secret rooms
>>720326643>use new mechanics>game is harder>use normal and simple old mechanics>game is easymaybe the new mechanics just suck
>>720327350The Architect Key.
I'm tired of debating pros and cons Just tell me what the one objectively best crest is
>>720327268That's a friendly ecological plant eating mosquito.
>>720326260I like the meat smacks of the reaperwhich it did more damage
>>720326363Presumably in reference to Reaper.OP seems pretty ESL though, so... who can say.
Im very surprised to see her again, and to see her alive
>>720327398uhhh shaman
Reaper crest niggers fell into the 2 red tools trap.
>>720327398Step 1: Equip ArchitectStep 2: Equip CogfliesThere ya go, don't have to fight bosses anymore.
>>720327372>game is harderskill issue
>>720326260Its the cheat crest
>>720327336I have no idea where you might be talking about.
>>720327350Cogwheels are nice.
Love me upgraded Hunter CrestLove me damage buffLove me diagonal pogo mixupsSimple as
>>720326260Yeah, I just like it because it's fast. I don't want a delay between my swings.
Where's a nice and easy piece of craft metal I can find? I've only found like or 3
Does anyone else just fucking HATE the diagonal stab with the regular crest? It just genuinely fucking sucks dick and causes me to fuck up all the time. Call it a skill issue if you want, but I have literally ZERO problems of any kind with the pogo slash and the claws jump. The diagonal stab is repositions you very badly, does not have enough length to its movement or attack hit box, and is extremely finicky at times to hit 'stab jump' objects like spikes/etc with. It's just fucking bad.
>>720327615Woops, my bad anon, I was thinking about another flea spot for some reason. I see the one you're talking about. You're supposed to go from Whispering Vaults. There is actually an exit that leads outside of Songclave where you can climb up to the flea.
>>720327818big reason to go wanderers or reaper
>>720327268We half life now
Why do I have to pay 30 dollars every time I wanna access the shop in Pilgrim's Rest?
>>720327818It is good sometimes
>>720327867to prove your faith
>>720326260>Pogo jump cheatingdude the base moveset and other crests have pogo jumping. Why is this intended feature cheating?
ok so why does this guy hit for 2 damage?
Here it isThe worst enemy in the game
>>720326260>I using >I demolished

>>720327918No, that's the one to the right of it.
>>720328118never a shortage of male homos in team cherry games so it's not like he was left out
does the game really expect me to farm stuff to keep with the vendors?
>>720328118Rundown on this guy?
>>720328264What the fuck does this sentence mean
>>720326854It does? I've mainly been using wanderer and reaper. I might just invest in the architect crest then.
>>720328264Yeah, or mods/cheat engine.
>>720328338I can't buy jackshit most of the time, I don't have enough $ to keep up with the map seller dude.
>>720328264You don't farm so much as revisit older areas and scrub them of secrets. I haven't had to farm more than once at the very beginning to unlock the door in moss home.
>>720328264I can somewhat keep up with most stuff if you never lose rosaries.
>>720326260You use this crest to cheese the game, I use it to honor my half-brother. We are NOT the same.
>>720328389You can go call her up at bone bottom (ring on a stick to the top right of town) anytime if you meet her in an area and don't have the rosaries on hand. You don't have to buy her out of all her maps and markers at the start of the game, and she won't have much new each time you meet her later.The early game does leave you a bit poor, but it gets better pretty quick imo
>>720328434Our brother would want me to honor our father by taking Achitect and spamming buzzsaw
>>720328513Awooo
>>720328513>awoooo
>>720328345it does but only if you have a specific setupthere's a charm that makes every "throw" tool throw two times at once (for two charges of course)you make a build around that and refill your tools with architect's alt bind and it rapes everything (assuming you have the shards to keep it up)
>>720327823Found it, thanks mang
>>720328029I like how her fight is basically Hornet 2, sans traps.>Throws her weapon and then rushes forward to grab it>Jumps into the air to thrust down at an angle>Can parry and riposte if the player isn't carefulMirror match!
>>720328513love these guysthough, they don't have the cute jumps the grubs did if you didn't jump with them, you're soulless.
>>720327935she does in act 3
>>720328618Good job man, don't forget to open the shortcut to this place so you don't have to go around again.
>>720328264When you reach the Citadel you will be drowning in rosaries. String them all up to capacity and you won't ever have to worry about running out.
>>720327818I don't mind it. Little harder than the normal pogo, but I got used to it fairly quickly
>an old stone gate with a simple keyholehow do I open this one? where is the key?
>>720328837Simple key.You can buy one from bone bottom vendor.
>>720327398this is more or less this games easy mode. same as using summons in souls games or blasphemous blade/mimic tear in elden ringtools can be freely swapped out depending on the boss
I finished the game with Hunter, I am a poggers gaymer
What do fleas eat if there are no large mammals for them to drink the blood of.
Anyone playing with a keyboard? are the shortcut buttons bugged or something?
>>720328923the one that costs like 500? oh nigga...
>>720329083Flea brew
People keep saying there is a way to get into the citadel from blight but I'm just not seeing it and the steam thing looks like a dead end
>>720329083Hornet's pussy
>>720329015>WeavelightHow is it useful exactly? I would get it if you had silk skills (because it gives +1 silk level compared to your amount of silk hearts) since they cost 4.But with the architect crest? Seems like a huge waste, even if it's for healing.
>>720329015The dices, are they from that dice mini game with the bug in the sand area?What does it do?
>>720329131There's another that costs 650.There are 2 free ones, but you have to find them at Sinners Road and Sands of Karak
>>720329086 wouldn't know, im not playing with keyboard. currently using a controller.
>>720329185% chance to block attacks, 2 hits included I think
>>720329150>taking something cute and wholesome desperately trying to make it degeneratei have porn addict fatigue
Advice for first sinner? I don't think Reapers gonna cut it with this one, she telelports too much. I want to use wander but I don't have any memory lockets to unlock slots for it.
>>720329015forgot to mention that the plasmium vial and architect crest have a special interaction in that if you use all vials, then bind and use more for a total of 9 you go from 10 regular 9 blue masks to 10 blue masks with all masks having a timed regen and your bind changing to only healing 1 mask at a time. it essentially has no practical use in the game currently but if they even release a true platforming challenge it will be unmatched
>>720326260Upgraded Hunter with a full gauge. Unless, of course, you get hit a lot. But you wouldn't do that, would you?
>>720329147>Start at the Sinner's Road bench>Head right to the big vertical room>Climb to the top>Head left once you're in the long vertical room>Climb to the top left and enter the Mist>Play the Needolin to the lanternflies to make them show you the correct path through the mist (puzzle spoiler)>Once you're out of the Mist enter the Exhaust Organ>Rest at the bench to the left of the center area>Kill the boss Phantom>Proceed to the Citadel

>>720329296i did it first try with reaperjust get into the flow of things and make sure you interrupt her heal
>>720329404It works like in Cave Story with the Polar Star, you get the gun parts and depending on who you ask to construct it you get a different gun.
>>720329408>healoh fug. Also kinda stupid they don't respawn you at the bench. I have to walk my ass all the way back over to it to repair and then walk back.
>>720329291Welcome to 4chanWe have a lot of retards like this here
>>720329183ive found it the most useful for general purposes when using tools that use silk and the sprint tool because you naturally regen 2 spools. for bosses I swap it out for reserve bind and maybe fractured mask but I think fractured mask falls off late game
>>720327134Like fucking all of them?
>>720329015Not a fan of your blue tool choice, why not use quick sling, long claw or the one to reduce charge attack time? Also, Silkshot isn't that great (and cost silk), I would use Tacks, Flintslate, Voltvessels, Drill, Conchcutter, Pimpillo or Curvesickle instead. Those with the other two you have are the best tools from my testing.
HOW THE FUCK DO I FIGHT GARMOND I DONT WANT TO START ACT 3 UNTIL I DO
>>720329404lotta metroid in this one
>>720329296hunter crest sprint attack
>>720329378I would assume so. I tried using Sting Shard and it did damage it, but I was low on tools and got distracted by other things and didn't finish the kill.
>>720329562Oh yeah, makes sense, I was just wondering if it was specific or not.I've actually never used fractured mask so I can't really tell, but with the amount of projectiles, yeah probably.
>>720329471Do they have any meaningful differences?
>>720329378Do it.... but only once you've upgraded your weapon a bit, otherwise it's a bit of a slog.
>>720329604nta but longclaw in my experience isnt even noticeable
>>720329703Yep one's literally semi machine gun, another is one huge shotgun style blast the last was the one in anons webm
>>720326775ascended hunter crest is objectively the best choice for most situationsanyone saying otherwise just hasnt gotten the hang of diagonal pogo
>>720329786and which one is actually good?
Just found the third silk heartWhy is it in such a random place? isn't that plot relevant?
for act 3, where is Mr Mushroom for the 3rd zone? Marrow or Deep Docks? I scoured the former but didnt find him
>>720329539>>720329291humorless sticks in the mud
>>720329850Far Fields
>>720329831the railgun because it's hitscan and pierces infinitely
So when I get the 3 melodies to unlock the elevator atop the citadel, is the game over, or?
>>720327470>that eyeGet away, she's infected
>>720329831They are all meh, the railgun is the coolest, but not really good.
>>720329183Weavelight is a free silk heart and massive speeds up silk heart recharge. Three silk hearts plus weavelight lets you refill your tools pretty much whenever you want. I would replace injectors on that build with quicksling, and replace the compass with shell satchel. Quicksling doubles your tool use each time you use a tool, effectively doubling your dps. Shell satchel gives you 50% more tool stock to maximize your architect tool refill skill. Also might want to replace the anklets with Scuttlebrace for the i-frames, but that is a personal choice
Christ glad I picked up the crying baby or whatever that I bet I won't be able to drop for hours

>>720329983>massive speeds up silk heart rechargeI didn't know it was fast, when I tested it I only had once silk heart so I never really noticed, but if it's really fast, with three hearts, it's probably great. Damn, I should have tried it more.
>>720330154he's marked on the map bro
>>720330025I hate the crying, tell me if you want the solution
>>720327818yes, with it theres always a chance to land right in front of an enemy.i've spent like hour on the beast with hunter, while reaper took me two tries.
>6 hours in>no mask upgrades>no damage upgradesI can't do this anymore...
>>720329798ive only been there once, but is there some trigger or item that you have to have to ascend the other crests?
>>720330134this webm would be nearly identical with any crest thoughits just a parry and a few regular r1s
>>720330134>Flintstone doesn't even last 10 secondsI knew it was short, but I didn't think it was THIS short.
What the fuck does this even do
>>720329634Answer me you cunts
How do you ascend the other crests?The dude only upgraded the first one
>>720330289Sure but it's fun and I'm enjoying it.

>>720330309Huge needolin range to stun mobs
>>720329839That's the second
I know it's a minor thing, but I really hate how a lot of rosaries you find in the world can roll down chasms and ends up in spikes.

>>720330436Some of them seem purposely put in stupid places to waste rosaries or shards.

>>720326363no, hitting enemies faster makes silk faster

>>720330442Only boss I had some real issues with was Groal because the flying adds where btfoing me and I wasn't embracing the filth. I'm not first trying all bosses or anything but the way people talk about them and the platforming makes me think a lot of them just jumped on the bandwaggon and never even played HK.
>>720330638im still shocked people were struggling with the REGULAR beastflyi thought surely they meant the magma one and they were trying to fight it early or something

>>720330796how is it even possible to get filtered by fourth chorusi could hand the controller to my mother who hasn't played a video game since the NES and she could beat that boss ten times out of ten

Can they please let us fight Shakra in act 3, I fucking loathe missable shit like this and I would have loved to fight her
>>720330638>>720330796a lot of people who bought into the silksong hype had literally never tried a metroidvania before so Im really not surprised by all this
>>720330894Fourth Chorus also has an instakill above his head, set off all the rocks and a bomb boulder will drop on him and instantly finish him off.
>>720330847Never underestimate 3rd worlders. They suck at video games, always fall for hype, and collect cp
>>720330859Well im glad i dont have to go back there at least. I was thinking soemthing happened when you maxed out silk and played long enough cause the ground kept shaking. Pretty dusappointing desu
>>720330056Their entire design philosophy for this game clearly was>We're going to give the player sooo many movement options and abilities so we need everything else to compensate for thatIt's why half the maps are bigger than they should be, why there's spikes fucking everywhere, why there's flying shooters in every single god damn zone and why there's 5 Paths of Pain
>>720326260This looks like a uterus
>>720330856Sure, but I was actually trying not to fall into the filth at first. Once I figured out you fight shit with shit it was easy.
>>720326892>unusableyou are a retarded autist and just can't get used to it, it feels really fucking great once you get the hang of it.
>>720329361I tried the butterfly thing earlier and since it didn't immediately lead me to the boss I stopped.Didn't think that was the connection, weird.
>>720330796Oh so that's why there are pic like these here from time to time. I had to actually look a video of the boss because I completely forgot his huge telegraphed moves.I didn't even know you could use a rock above his head to one shot the second phase LMAO
>>720330972What, do you just hang out in the water and fuck him from beneath?
>>720330965And thats based. I fucking hate it when games give you a shit ton of options and upgrades and theres literally no reason to actually interact with any of it. The fact that it makes all the shitters seeth is just icing on the cake.
>Doing platforming sections not designed for double jump with double jumpoof
i wonder how do i kill swamp frog, my hp wenting off sooner than i kill him.
>>720331026Hug the corners and he cant really hit you with the soul blasts or succ you up. You still gotta watch out for the adds jumping into the water or for him coming out of it, but you can do it with near zero risk if you play it safe. Poison boomerang is top tier for this strategy.
how do i get to the blasted steps?
>>720331105stay in cancer water, he 90% can't hit you
>>720331026Nothing can hurt you in the wormpit except his slam which is easy to avoid. Just become one with the worms and wait for your chance to strike
>>720330965>5 Paths of PainOkay I can see the one above the cradle in act 3 it was mostly annoying because you had to hit the worms to get silk, followed by the escape from the abyss but I don't see anything else even close?Maybe a bit of clockwork core, but it's so short though.
>architech with poison cogflieswow the game plays itself
>>720331132Left from the upper level of Shellwood
>>720331217Architect charge attack is the only one I really like, too. Shame about that fucking pogo.
I feel like people are dismissing the charge attack. That thing is supremely useful for getting rid of enemies fast. Especially the assholes who give you few attack oportunities.I only wish you would do a normal attack when releasing the button without a full charge instead of just doing nothing.
Can I use the Act 3 ability to get anything new in Mount Fay?
>>720331217Architect, cogflies, and poison are all "You didn't beat the game tier". I briefly fucked around with architect crest, realized how broken it was as long as you can keep feeding it bone shards, and renounced all tools and reverted to hunter for the remainder of the game.Beast playthrough is next.
>fight the plant boss>hey man this is pretty easy>summons flying minionsfuck you asshole
>>720331283the problem is that charge attacks suck on half of the crestson the other half they do fuck pretty hard though
Gonna be honest, 2D platformers are my bane, mostly because Im a keyboard/mouse user and sometimes its hard to adjust controls for it. So my point is..Am I fucked if I want to beat this game? Like Hollow Knight feels normal so far, but Silksong is a different thing, a lot complains about artificially increased difficulty, while others say about first group being a low skill idiots. I can adopt and all, but is it even worth it? I feel myself really confused.
>>720331264It's cool that you can charge the pogo, though. And it's kind of a rider kick.
>>720331294yes, there is one secret area there you need it for
>>720331245the sealed door from the fast travel?
>>720331294Yes, surprisingly. The Pinstress will tease it after you duel her there, but you'll just need to look around a lot.
>>720331323boomerang
>>720331347I would sooner castrate myself before playing silksong on KB&M
>>720331353I like it for offense, It's just ass to move around with. Of course you can just change crests for bosses, assuming there isn't a cancerous runback.
>>720331283No its a fine tool i just think its fucking retarded that it doesnt generate silk at all. It makes so its basically only useful as an add dispatcher because you lose out on dps vs a real boss
>>720331361go up from the bench and unlock it dummy
>>720331361Look at that picture more closely
>>720331424oooooohhh
>>720326854>>720328345Architect crest is cheat ez mode. I would have actually have had to explore the game to beat Lace mk2 and the last boss without it. Just throw on 3 traps with the poison shit and dodge mechanics. The flies and Hornet's mid-air caltrops are good and switch between the boomerang and ground caltrops as needed.
>>720331323Silk storm
>>720331449rock sex
>>720331347Just learn to use a controller if you feel like K&M is holding you back. No one is going to think less of you.You can use multiple input devices for different games, it's fine.
>>720326260I don't think there's an objectively bad crest, but I do think hunter is one with no draw backs to make up for extra features, outside an ok charge attack.
>>720331375huh found it. I hadn't exhausted my conversation with her so that was helpful. thanks for the hint
>>720331515Beast seems pretty objectively awful
>>720331347take the controller pill for certain games. kb+m is what i usually use but for some games like platformers i'll use a controller instead. sometimes the rumble can add a lot to the experience too honestly but i'd never play some genres with a controller ever.
GurnanaGurnana!Heh, GURANA!GURANAAAA!!
i tried a few different crests but desu i like the default the most. also helps that i found the upgrade for it so it deals more damage
>>720326260>walk forward and spam attack>parry half the attacks enemies make on accident>kill most enemies before they get a second hit on me>respond to every complaint thread that they should just git gud and I one shot the boss they're stuck onfeels good to be a wanderer chad
>>720331640Hornet?More like WHOREnet lmao!
>>720331347keyboard and mouse literally makes platforming easier, anyone saying otherwise is a controller nigger who can't do anything on mouse and keyboard>t. dipshit who actually uses both controller or m/kb depending on the game
>>720331584Beast DPS goes through the roof with the buff and it's attacks are fairly fast. It's dash attack is unwieldy but really effective at keeping you air borne. I'd say it's prob one of the weaker ones given it's weak slot setup but still decent in the right situation. You can legit just face tank some fights with the buff.
>>720331347It is definitely harder. But if you can beat the harder stuff in hollow knight, not even counting the pantheons, then silksong shouldn't be too bad. It's more that there's more of the difficult stuff rather than the difficult stuff being harder, if that makes sense.I only ever play platformers on controller, so I don't know how it is for keyboard and mouse. But I have seen a few of your kind who thought the diagonal pogo was actually easier to adjust to than on controller. So there's that.
>equip chakrams>hit challengeI love this game
>>720331584if a boss isn't playing keep-away, beast unironically trivializes it. with druid's eye you can recover most of your soul while in heal mode, you can outheal the boss's damage, and then just bind again and keep facetanking.it's fucking stupid and i love it.
The true ending is dogshit.Random void retards that have 0 explanation to what they are deus ex machina hornet??????????????
>>720332043>he didn'ted playeded hollow knight
>>720332043>Last fights shit>Ending is shitPLEASE TC give a good DLC to reconcile...
>>720332043Please be bait.
>>720326892Have you considered that you're just bad?
>>720331491>>720331753It is more of a question of practical use. Like so far playing HK and my keyboard is not slowing me down, but seeing how it comes to Silksong, it just makes me question what will work better. Like, the guy (He is a pro controller user with all achievements in HK) who I know said that it is painful to use sticks and stuff, the other one said that its just shit in general and there is not control over Hornet in the air and etc. For sure I can use controller, but I might suck even more with it lol. So yeah, I'm at a crossroads.>>720331721I think I could complete pogo segments much easier on controller, but yeah, feels comfy to play like this, just not really familiar with hard sort of 2D platforming. Even tho maybe I'm exaggerating. >>720331604I usually do use different devices for some games, and I wanted to start playing HK with controller, but desire to use keyboard was harder to overcome.
>Finally get the grapple hook that everyone's talking about>It fucking costs silk to use specifically so you get cucked out of your healing and silk arts if you try using it to fightWHYWHY IS THIS GAME SO AUTISTICNAME ONE (1) OTHER METROIDVANIA THAT TAXED YOU LIKE THIS FOR USING MOVEMENTIN METROID DREAD, DO YOU HAVE TO PAY MISSILES OR HP EVERY TIME YOU USE THE GRAPPLE BEAM? FUCKING NO.OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH IM TEAM CHERRY I THINK PLAYERS HAVING FUN AND USEFUL ABILITIES IS BAD, OOOOHHH YOU WILL BE KEKED AND YOU WILL LIKE IT, OOOOOOH PAY THE TAX LIL WEAVER JANNYSUCK MY BALLS
>>720332043True ending is kino wtf ar->spoilerah you never played the first game
>>720330214Sure. It had gone quiet for a while, but it's come back with a vengeance.
>>720332243Looks easy.
Reaper master race
>>720332323If you hit with it the silk cost is restored
>>720332323The silk is refunded if you hit an enemy with it, retard-kun
>>720332323bwo you get a refund on the silk when you hit enemies with it
>>720332391>>720330214>>720330025Just shake it really hard. That's what I do with my kids.
Dsp beat savage beastfly. Are you worse than dsp?
>>720332323You do realize you always recover 1 silk to be able to use both the grapple and the faster sprint tool right
>>720331323just hit them until they die
>>720332489>there are people worse than DSP in this thread RIGHT NOWscary thought
>>720326260It's only marginally better on certain bosses. In general, hunter is better. Hell, the extra red slot of Hunter means you can basically hit the speed of Wanderer but with a larger hitbox and faster speed
>>720332419>>720332430>>720332463AND WHERE ARE THE ENEMIES IN THE PLATFORMING BITS YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS? THIS LITERALLY ONLY EXISTS TO PARASATIZE YOUR RESOURCES FOR NO REASON THAN DRAGGING EVERYTHING OUT. YOU FUCKING KEK RETARDS REALLY LIVE LIKE THIS AND SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT? PLAY LITERALLY ANY OTHER GAME AND SEE HOW BUCKBROKEN YOU ARE.
>>720332667See >>720332520Just use your cloak hover it comes back in less than half a second.
>>720332667You replenish one silk point for free when your spool is empty. Try playing the game next time
Yo what does poison scale of? Does it's ticks of damage get doubled with Barbed Bracelet?
>>720332734nta but it is annoying with only 1 silk heart, it breaks the rhythm of you climbing up
>>720332771Barbed Bracelet is not double damage, only ~25%, no idea if it works with poison.
>>720332791It is, but it's not as the sperg suggests
>>720332769AND IT TAKES YOUR ENTIRE BAR TO HEAL AND HALF YOUR BAR TO USE SPELLS, DIPSHIT, THE GRAPPEL SUCKING EVEN ONE BAR OUT DOES NOTHING BUT CONVERT CONTACT OR SPIKETRAP DAMAGE INTO IRREVERSABLE LOSSES. THE MOST BLATANTLY ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY IN THE HISTORY OF METROIDVANIA MECHANICS. IMAGINE ACTUALLY HAVING TO BE TAXED FOR GRAPPLING AND NOT THINKING THAT THE DEVS ARE LAUGHING AT YOU.
steel soul has a secret boss??? wtf
>>720332416It really is though. Reaper crest does extra knockback that pushes bugs into spikes and off ledges. It also has the best aerial moveset in the game for getting hits where faster attack speed doesn't matter.It even takes advantage of bugs with overhead attacks that can't even reach you at peak pogo range, which they will never stop spamming due to poor ai.
>>720332309I'm not very good at video games and am just using a 360 controller (so effectively no dpad) and I think Hornet controls just fine. I've even gotten used to the diagonal pogo and generally prefer it.
>>720332849IT IS STUPID AND ANNOYING, ONE MORE ITEM ON THE GIANT LAUNDRY LIST OF STUPID AND ANNOYING SHIT IN THIS GAME THAT SERVES NO PURPOSE BUT INFLATING THE FRUSTRATION FACTOR SO YOU GET MAD EASIER.
>>720332950look how close her bare bug pussy is to his face...
Is the needolin stun actually ever useful in any fight? It feels like it takes too long.
>>720327372Sounds like maybe the old mechanics were wrong all along
>>720332391Go to the witch in the woods, the pollip heart quest giver
>>720332771Similar question, what damage is the skirt blades damage? Is it tool damage or nail damage?
>>720332932The grapple costs one silk point to stop you from mindlessly spamming it in combat and zip around like a spaz, you have to actually be precise and hit enemies with it. If you do hit enemies, you get the silk back, and you get even more silk if you continue hitting them normally. If you run our of silk despite the game being that generous, that's just you being a shitter. And again, none of this applies to pure platforming segments where you always get at least one silk point for free and literally can't run out.
>>720332998why did i get a semi from reading this?
WHERES GOD KING ZOTE?
>>720333360I'm afraid I'm diagnosing you with being based. There is no cure
>>720332932You are not gonna get silk in platforming parts anyways you mongoloid. Oh my lord you miss out on maybe one single heal how horrible.
>>720333401at bretta's house making zotelings
>>720333274"MINDLESSLY SPAMMING IT" AKA JUST USING THE TOOLS GIVEN TO YOU IS SOMETHING NO OTHER METROIDVANIA HAS AN ISSUE LETTING YOU DO, YOURE JUST A KEKED FAGGOT WHO THINKS PLAYING IN A GIMP SUIT FOR GAMER CRED MEANS YOU'RE LESS OF AN ACHIEVEMENT WHORE.
>>720333435>You are not gonna get silk in platforming partsu dont need to. you get 1 free silk if you run out
>>720333435YOU DONT GET SILK WHICH IS WHY THE SELECT FEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR HEALING ARE ALL THE MORE IMPORTANT WHICH IS SPECIFICALLY WHAT THIS MECHANIC EXISTS SOLELY TO BLOCK. ARTIFICIAL FRUSTRATION.
>>720333497>AKA JUST USING THE TOOLS GIVEN TO YOU IS SOMETHING NO OTHER METROIDVANIA HAS AN ISSUE LETTING YOU DOGive me an example of a single fucking metroidvania where your tools don't cost a resource
>>720333497Just make sure to actually hit the enemies and you can use the grapple as much as you like, sperg
>>720333519That's what I'm saying, that retard doesn't need silk for platforming, he is seething about not being able to use stockpiled silk from other parts.>>720333540You are a fucking retard.
>>720333553If HK released today, dashing would cost soul, probably.
>Lace 1: 1 dash>Lace 2: 2 dashes>Lace 3: 3 dashesbruh
>>720333553DO YOU HAVE TO PAY HEALTH OR MISSILES TO USE SCREW ATTACK, DOUBLE JUMP, OR GRAPPLE IN FUCKING METROID YOU DUMBASS FUCKING ZOOMER? WAKE UP AND REALIZE HOW HARD YOU ARE BEING SCAMMED BY THIS GAME'S DESIGN.
>>720333630Why? It doesn't in SS
>>720333879the i-frame dash I meant, since it's busted even with the (very short) cooldown
>>720333864You have to pay a missile to shoot a missile though. How horrible, Nintendo is scamming you
>>720334061IF YOU REALLY THOUGHT THAT WAS A FAIR COMPARISON YOU NEED TO TAKE A BREAK FROM POSTING ON 4CHAN UNTIL YOU CALM DOWN AND REMEMBER HOW TO THINK.
>>720334135the absolute irony of this post lmfao
>>720334135Waaah I wanna use the tool the game gives me, why won't Nintendo let me spam missiles for free?
where do I got after the wall jump? I don't know what to do at bellhart
>>720334242You need to find the source of the haunted thread that has ensnared the Bellhart townsfolk. So follow where the thread originates from.
>>720334242beat widow in the bell mine
>>720334340>>720334312Don't know where the bell mine is, looks like I need to explore more
>>720327918its easy when you realize you can dash under them and swing up, but you need to fight them on the ground
Anything I should really do before I move onto Act 3? Pretty sure I just got the Quest. I don't recall ever being infected, I'd been considering trying to go for that achievement.
>>720334680Pharloom has these giant veins of bells that run through the land, like veins of ore. Just with bells. The Bell Beast you ride around can traverse through them, and Bellhart was built right in the middle of one.
What am I supposed to do here?
>>720332824its description specifically states needle damage. Does it even increase tool damage?
>>720334192WITH EVERY WORD YOU TYPE YOU REVEAL HOW KEKED YOU ARE IN MIND AND SOUL.
>>720334687I think that specific ending is the only relevant thing in the game that's permanently missable. You have to beat Grand Mother Silk while infected
>>720334874Come back later. Way later. Make sure you buy the secret boomerang from old man ant.
>>720334874In act 3 there is 4 targets and you boomerang them all at once. Not sure what to do earlier when there is only one target. Maybe hit it with all your boomerangs?
>>720334874Break the targetBreak the targeter
>>720335119Ah nice. And I actually had the thing to get infected and was nearby, so I went ahead and did that. Guess I'll beat my head against the wall, at least my pin is +3 instead of just +2 this time.
>>720335119You can miss a ton of completed journal entries too. Kind of annoying actually.
>>720335208Not him but that guy was dead by the time I got there, other ants had murdered him.
>Only tools left are rosary onesTime to grind I guess. I only ever lost like a couple hundred and I still need to grind like fucking 4k man.
>>720335253Isn't it just two entries?
Are there more than 4 act three hearts? I have the three they tell you about + the fags, are there any others?
>>720327103I like Reaper...
>>720335394Only 4
>>720335358Oh shit a bunch of these actually auto complete when you finish the dream. The Australians will be spared.
>>720335215Hmm, maybe it would've been a good idea to get more than 7 masks. Well I guess with 8 masks it would be the same amount of hits anyway
>won't be able to play till saturday>won't remember anythingbros, this game is exhausting
>>720328029I'm just waiting for her inevitable harder dream version in a DLC
>>720335549LOL I beat her like next try, she was really easy when I couldn't heal as a crutch.
>>720330967The first game was riddled with phallic objects, now I see a ton of female reproductive organs in this one. However first game did have the ultimate pwn of all pwns on snatches. Giger would be proud.
>get captured by an enemy>wake up in a jail without my dressb-b-bros did she got SA in jail?
>>720326260>erm well the damage is better and the classic pogo and and yeah whatever i like how reaper FEELS
>>720326260Some larger enemies are harder to jump over without hunter. The really bullshit fact is you should be able to switch between them without bench.
>>720335794was the slab peak game design?
>>720326260>is finding the options the game gives you that you like the most cheating?No. The game is hard, you're supposed to feel comfortable with the moveset. Wanderer isn't cheating, reaper isn't cheating, buffed hunter isn't cheating
>>720329634wait, you can fight him before act 3?
how do you get silk upgrades?
>>720336309Yeah, he challenges you to a duel in the citadel.I have no idea what triggers it, in my case he spent all of act 2 sleeping.
>>720335752yeah I beat her on first try and was disappointed there wasn't a harder version later in the game. I think its a large contender for a dlc rehash.
I haven't found the Shaman Crest, I have all the others.
>>720336593he did show up randomly for me in the citadel fighting mobs, but never got a special dialog from him
>>720335052I don't know which one is sadder, you being this much of a genuine retard or someone retarded enough to think he is being funny. Fucking be ashamed nigger.
>>720330989>>72033224345 degree pogo is objectively inferior>b-but you can get used to-no>-y-you can't adaptnot worth the effort
>>720326643The dive angle on the default crest isn't the problem, it's the complete lack of horizontal range.
>>720337135>>b-but you can get used to->no>>-y-you can't adapt>not worth the effortIf you only train with it then you're 100% fine, but you have to start the game at the beginning and never switch off. The moment you switch to a downward blade bounce you're going to get massive cognitive-dissonance. I commend people who stuck with it but I was too interesting in seeing all the different crests in my first playthrough. Now going back to hunter's crest is like pulling teeth for me; I can choke in combat at the drop of a charging Skull Tyrant.
Test
>>720337135>>objectively inferior>when it gives you more freedom when pogoing on enemies>>720337360I swapped between hunter and reaper constantly and played a fair bit with every crest I unlocked it's not hard to just swap.
Is there no fucking bench besides the shitty paid one at the bottom in bilewater? I'm so sick of this fucking area, I finally got to a bench and it fucking collapsed and sent me to a river of fucking maggots why cant you just be happy in this game
>>720337637Isn't there one next to the bellway?
>>720337637Gotta reach the top
>>720337681I'm not paying for no fucking bench, the game either gives me one or I stay without them, I need the currency for cool shit>>720337716Got it, I'll try to reach the top then
>>720337716Wait, I don't think you can reach the top, its full of spikes and shit, the only bench there was is the one I was talking about that broke, are you talking about the bench of another area?
Do you guys think the game is a slow burn? Man, things become waay more engaging once you unlock dash, wall jump and floating.I was falling asleep during the first hours
>>720337764>I'm not paying for no fucking bench?????It's just like most other benches in the game, you pay 80 rosaries once and you get it forever. Just like in Hollow Knight.
>>720337889I was partially joking but the act 2 areas milked every single rosaria my Hornet had, either by dying or by spending
>>720327818>use diagonal down attack>get barely any vertical as I take two hits of contact damageIt definitely feels like shit.
How the fuck do you reach the top left of the map? Both sides of the way in the map can't be crossed,this is pissing me off.
>>720337858You have to take the right path
>>720337972I have maxed out rosary strings and necklaces just from exploring the Citadel and looking for secrets. I dunno how you can run out, if you get like 200 beads just string them up at a town.
>>720338175Nigga what? Isn't the map obvious? You basically need to be a parkour pro however.
>>720338175You take the left path by dropping down the shaft, getting the orb there, and jumping all the way up.
What is this item I'm missing in the materium?
>>720338193I see, I'm on my way there then, by the way FUCK these cowardly exploding knife throwing bitches that jump in the river of maggots if you attack them>>720338239Anytime I have rosaries I spend them anon, I buy all sorts of different things from different merchants to test them out even if they don't seem good, as I said before though these act 2 areas have not been kind to me, I lost like 600 rosaries so far by dying
>>720338175Grapple hook and/or double jump. Start from the upper right corner with the corridor you haven't explored. Pogo jump on spikes, if possible.
>>720338175Go to the rightmost vertical room. Go to the bottom. There's an orb you can hit. You can thank me later, faggot.
This shit is genuinely so frustrating, I like the game but it really does feel like its telling me to go fuck myself every second, bilewater is such a fucking dogshit area
>>720338546My issue with it is I have no fucking idea how to progress in it. I've visited every area I think I can actually reach, and the only one I can't I think I need double jump for, and I see one of Shakra's chakrams there so she must be up there. Can't get the map otherwise.I wound up just leaving to go elsewhere.
>>720338774I don't blame you, the areas are all huge and some of them are hidden behind secret walls and shit
>>720339095If it were just a secret wall that'd be a different story, but everything there is a dead end or leads back to the Exhaust Organ or Sinner's Road and I'm questioning why people are despising it so much when there doesn't seem to be anything there but respawning flies/ants and funny Blighttown hopping blowdart guys.What the fuck am I missing?
>>720338774>My issue with it is I have no fucking idea how to progress in itit's a metroidvania nigger explore other areas if you get stuck
>>720337873The original HK was also, people just don't remember it was.
>Dude what if White Palace but on a 30 second timer to not die and the water is effectively an instant deathtrap, oh and it is required to beat the game because it gatekeeps your double jumpThis game is a hate letter to its fans
>>720330436>can still get geo in HK that landed on spikes if you're careful or have the charm>Silksong they decide that's too much
>>720330506I don't know why Hornet can't ledge grab in balloon mode. I've died so many times in Faye Mountain because of that. Absolutely spiteful, genuinely malicious decision.
>>720340068is double jump even required? also, it's nowhere near the difficulty of path of painread the sign
>>720338285The delivery package of the repeatable quest, you have to do at least one.
>>720340367works on my machine. you were probably just too low
>>720340403It doesn't have to be literally Path of Pain tier to be annoying, dumbass. In fact, it wouldn't even be hard if it weren't for the ice timer. None of the platforming would be. I have yet to see a platforming section that would be actually challenging if you took away the flying bugs hurling shit at you from beyond your attack range or dumb timer gimmicks like this. All they can do is add a bunch of gay shit nobody likes because Hornet herself can't platform well.
>>720340460If if works on your machine you've got a modded copy. I've watched her float down past a ledge while hugging it the entire time as a balloon specifically to test if it really worked that way.
>>720333401Unlocked after getting 10Z%
>Father of Flamefuck this boss holy shit
>>720326854Drill hits many times, yesAlso many tools for high damage The tacks, saws and the drill thrown things do massive damage when thrown one after the other and you have the double thrown charm and the poison thing.

>>720340837Wanderer pogo makes quick work of it and magma bell will help keep you alive. When the core does its fireball spam it's generally pretty safe directly under it.
>>720341197open cheat enginefind bead amountset to 2000buy the charmsactually play the game
>>720340701lol idk what to tell you man. there's something one of us isn't understanding here
Do you ever get a super dash move like the crystal heart?
>>720341301The shitter recoils when faced with objective truth.He's just slamming into the side of platforms and wishing the game was compensating for the offset.
>>720341734You get one to go straight up, but not left/right. it's not really needed with how fast you can sprint
>>720326260Wanderer is for tryhards, which is ironic since a decently built Architect is better.
>>720333879It does with the sanic boots
>>720327268Someone at TC has been playing too much half life lol
>>720329015>doesn’t have thieves’ markYou didn’t beat the game
>>720326892It's actually great for combat and chaining combos with it makes me look very cool. This is why I prefer the combat of this game.Also, as a long fan of hollow knight, I want something different ya know?
>>720332489Yeah but how many tries?It's old wisdom around here that a boss's difficulty can be measured in how many DSP deaths.It's the semi-official /v/ metric for boss difficulty.
>>720341756You are a dumb cuck bitch if you think vid related doesn't count as grabbing the ledge when both ballooning and dashing. They purposefully made the ledge magnetism 10x weaker when ballooning to artificially make the platforming harder. Every single design decision in this entire game has but one purpose: to make it feel like complete ass to play, since that's the only card left in their hand to continue escalating the difficulty after releasing Godhome in the first game. Go ahead and reply to this post with a redline and an ERM AKTSHUALLY THIS INPUT IS PIXEL PERFECT. Prove my point.
>>720342538The diagonal pogo is theoretically good at chaining if it weren't for how enemies are coded to constantly be dashing out of range of the retaliatory pogo specifically so you can't chain it consistently.
>>720342708Hey friend, it looks like it didn't grab the ledge to me, so it didn't.Cope, die mad.
>>720342708>proven undeniably wrong>throws a tantrumevery time with you /v/ermin
>>720342753Reaper's the best for general traversal because of how much range you get. I managed to get this shit by bouncing off of all the fucking saws after an hour of ramming my face into them.
>>720342795>He seethes because he wasn't expecting a response but got one and doesn't know what to doI can boot up the game as well, retard, what the fuck are you gonna do about it?
>>720342753Sounds like a skill issue to me.
>>720342753I always float to readjust it whenever i encounter flying enemies.
what the fuck is that last judge run back
>>720342881You do parkour?
>>720342850It's not up to you whether the enemy randomly chooses to cuck you. Good example: the big worms in Greymoor can choose to dig underground at anytime, you can't stop them.
>>720342842>incoherent responseWhat does turning the game on have to do with the objective reality of you whining like a petulant child that the game doesn't work the way you want it to?
>>720342824Was it necessary to add an unrelated spoiler image to your post anon? Some of us haven't finished act 2 yet because we work.
>>720342842>what the fuck are you gonna do about it?keep laughing at you I guess lol
>>720342912I mean yeah, you can't just apam it, you need to know where and when to use it. Doesn't mean it's bad, it's very useful and once you get hang of it you become a best chaining diagonal attacks.
>>720342914Oh I'm sorry, are you mad that you wrote this incredibly childish post >>720341756 and then got blown the fuck out almost immediately afterwards? Shut the fuck up with your impotent cuck apologism for obvious garbage.
>>720339228You haven’t gotten to the boss run back yet. You’ll understand soon enough.
I don't want to update and get the easier experience, but what glitches should i be aware ofI heard you could get locked out of some cursed ending?
>>720342924You have zero context for what's even happening, but everything before it was painful platforming.
>>720338546>bilewaterProtip: Bilewater is completely optional
>>720343003Blown out how? You showed it not working in a situation it doesn't work, I don't see how that refutes anything?I'm only saying that it doesn't work when it doesn't work, and that it's consistent in that way. Crying about it just makes you look gay and retarded.Are you stupid or something?Am I misunderstanding the situation here?
>>720343072Yeah, i'm just asking you to check the spoiler option if you are uploading, idk, screenshots of act 2 onwards.
Dude every time I think I’m close to beating act 2 100% they add something else. This huntress quest is crazy. How am I supposed to know what enemies to cook? Talk to the chef in choral chambers I guess
>>720326643New mechanics like>More adds>More gauntlets>More projectiles>More flying enemies>Lower player damage>Higher enemy hp>Runbacks + Gauntlets combined
>>720343017I can't even find the boss, that's the thing. I've explored everywhere I can find there that doesn't require double jump and it's all dead ends. Where the fuck do I go?
>>720343217it isn't a specific enemy, you just have to kill any enemy with tools. it should be apparent which tools produce which kind of quest item
>>720343275somewhere else until you get double jump, and then you go back to explore further. it's how metroidvanias work
>>720343195I'm saying that it doesn't work in an incredibly artificially broad set of conditions because the devs got scared that this feature working smoothly would make the game too easy. ie difficulty by shit controls which is shit design. Your only response so far is "erm chuddy don't you know that's intentional????" It very much is intentional, dipshit, that's the problem. The game is designed to be shit on purpose. You are a dumb faggot for going so far out of your way to make excuses for it.
>>720343264>what are crests>what are tools and stone shards>what are wishes>what are the new moves
>>720343340Okay, so you understand that it does work that way and just want it to be different?My concern was that you were fabricating a make believe mechanic in your head and/or blaming the game for the mistakes you made knowing how the ledge grab works.I don't really give a shit either way, brother, I'm just saying that it does work the way it does and if you're venting frustration I understand I guess.
>>720330442What did you expect from bandwagoners? If any of them even played hollow knight it was just for a few hours before dropping it.
>>720342987I dunno there seems to be a ton of enemies in this game designed specifically to ruin that diagonal pogo. It's one of the reasons the Repear crest is so strong. Half the enemies in this game don't know what to do if you can just bounce on their heads, they try anticipating the diagonal downslash but have no answer otherwise.
>>720343872Don't know what you are talking about, I can pogo almost every enemy in the game pretty consistently (not always of course, it depends a lot in positioning). Only exception I can think of of someone who is designed to counter that strategy in particular are the cogwork teapots that pour steam diagonally.

>>720344019One that stands out immediately because I just spent almost 30 minutes farming these faggots are the not-flying pin knights in Choral Chambers. It's not consistent but they do have a backdash they can unzip whenever, and even the threat of them doing it is enough to make you think twice about the pogo due to a whiff sending you into another bug in the crowd's body. I mostly use pogoing in this game as defense to keep me away from contact damage whereas in hollow Knight it was offense. That seems to be the dev vision.Also why the fuck does a parry not count as a hit? Come the fuck on Team Cherry, if you're gonna design mobs that make you jump+parry pogo like Pure Vessel, at least let that parry register as damage so these retards don't take so long to fight.
>>720326854Architect is unbelievably busted but also burns shards like a motherfucker. You spend more time grinding out shards than you save by killing every boss in ten seconds.
>>720344878yeah it's the designated shitter crestit's there so that retards can grind their way to victory
The toughest platforming challenge I've experienced so far was probably the end of cogworks core. Best ost theme I've heard yet as well.
>>720345265I just climbed the left wall all the way up in Cogworks core.
>>720345265Did you have the double jump?
>>720344720Freaked me the fuck out in my second playthrough. After having missed it completely in my initial run.
>>720345338Nope. Exploring right now to look for what I've missied.
how the fuck do i get myself kidnapped to the slab?on my first playthrough it just kinda happened but now on my second the dude just isnt spawning
